You should SEE all the yarn I just received!!!!
I purchased Rose's (Blue Purls) stash, and now I don't know what to offer up at my stocking tomorrow!!!!! I have some great yarns already from Jessica at Fabriconnection, and now I have ALL this yarn... we are talking close to 50 skeins! I will post a pic of it all when I download the pics from the camera this afternoon.
So fun.....

Theresa, I am not certain what she is doing right now, but on her site it does state that she is temporarily closed. I bought the yarn from her because I think she wanted to get it all out of her house. With her goings on with RDA, I think she is pretty busy.
here is a pic of the yarn http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/mom2pittcrew/lotsoyarn.jpg
and of course, M had to get in on it:

That is what I got from my mom's LYS. I got it in red and blue. The shop owner said she thought it was sport weight. She told me that a customer comes in to buy it specifically for soakers, because it is "natural."

I am so jealous!! I love the Araucania Nature Wool. I am using it now in shades of black/charcoal to knit some soaker pants with the HSY pattern. They are coming out beautiful!
